"Person of the century": a century of long-livers in their youth and now
When a person ages, many things change. Wrinkles, thinning and graying hair... the list is endless. But it is always the personality of the person. Photographer Jan Langer (Jan Langer) has created a photo project called Faces Of Century ("Person of the century"): removed 13 Czech centenarians who have well over 100 years, and compared the resulting images with photos of these people in his youth.
"This series of comparative shots explores similarities and differences in appearance. A person's character throughout life changing, but it seems that the essence of identity intact."
